At the Singapore Grand Prix, Toto Wolff commented on Felipe Massa’s attempts to overhaul the results of the 2008 season. The head of the Mercedes team addressed the subject and suggested that Massa had no grounds to make a claim.
Toto Wolff: “To be honest, I don’t think he has any reason to file a lawsuit. We sign the sports regulations. The rules are extremely clear and now that we have signed them, we must comply with them.
If everyone goes back to different situations from the past, the sport becomes a mess, especially when you look at championships as a whole. There are many things that influence whether you win or lose. To be honest, I don’t see the point of all this.
As for the procedure in the civil court, I don’t know. Let’s see if it is possible to calculate the extent of the damage caused. If we are talking about reputational damage, it will be difficult for them to prove this, right?
It feels like I’m watching a television series or a soap opera unfolding before my eyes.”
